I told him I did not know any such thing; that I could not see how the fire could start Jthere." This unexpected development came like a thunder-clap from a clear sky, and caused a decided sensation, besides provoking considerable mirth. While Linehan was making a "clean breast" of this decidedly unprofessional conversation, the face of McKenney became suffused and great drops of perspira filled with them.

Hubbard, and her marriage to her father's coachman, Frederick Shepard, four years ago, has just been made known to her friends here, who learned for the first time to-day that Mrs, Shepard had secured a divorce from her husband. The story of Miss Hutbard's hasty action, in deceiving her father and marrying a man so far beneath her, not only in the social, but in the intellectual scale, has had the ending which such stories generally do have repentance at leisure for what has been done in Miss Hubbard, who was at the time a young girl scarcely eighteen years of age, was secretly married to Shepard at Westneld, on March 11, 1S71), while her father's family were absent from Hartford.

Shepard, who was about thirty years of age, had acted as coachmen for ex-Gov. Hubbard for about a year and a half. The cause for which the divorce was granted is said to be abandonment, Shepard making no counter charges. Great efforts have been made to keep the fact that a divorce had been granted secret in Connecticut, the lawyers and the judge doing all in their power to conceal the record from the public. It is thought by some that Mrs.

Shepard, having disembarrassed herself of her plebeian husband, will be welcomed back to ner father's house, but the general opinion is that ex-Gov. Hubbard will never recall the denun assertion made by Linehan. McKenney was not present when he spoke to Linehan con. cerning a previous fire.
